What is ASUS GPU Tweak III?
ASUS added new features & UI designs. A boosted GPU pushes performance beyond default specifications which is a critical function for a graphics card utility. GPUT3 is designed to simultaneously cater to users seeking an auto-overclocking experience & to enthusiasts who want full manual controls. Built-in performance profiles, OC Scanner for NVIDIA GPUs provide a plug & play experience, while dedicated sliders for offsets, wattage, thermal thresholds & FPS limits give you full control. GPU fans as well as system fans connect to Fan Connect headers & can be customized with options for static RPM settings & user-defined curves. New for GPUT3 are hysteresis & update period options to adjust how quickly fans respond to temperature changes. All of these settings can be saved to profiles alongside preferred voltage & clock settings. Profile Connect feature allows the user to link any program to both a tuned & an OSD profile, so that when the app opens, GPUT3 swaps settings automatically. This feature is especially handy for users that want to optimize performance & fan speeds for a wide variety of software. Distinct overclocking & fan speed profiles can be created for specific games & applications & then GPUT3 seamlessly handles the rest. Performance tracking is a core focus in this iteration, so we added system power & fan RPM hooks to the already robust stat tracker. The entire monitor interface is also now detachable, scalable, & arrangeable into either a numerical line view or a grid-based graph format. It’s topped off with the ability to export monitoring sessions as logs which can be imported for later analysis. The OSD includes a host of new features, such as the ability to tweak fonts, colors, transparency levels, frosted panels, & even neon glow. The position & size can be scaled as necessary, and since users can now attach profiles to games through Profile Connect, we added a Preview mode, so that saved screenshots to check how OSD adjustments appear in-game.
Comments and Reviews
Properly sets the configs and truly updates them in real-time also preserves the settings even after the app has been closed. Has little to no latency in applying setting and also provides a pleasant OSD for review of configurations in running games which is stable, light and most important not overbearing as most OSD i've seen.
